Queen's Birthday Flypast

Squawk all you like about monarchy, but the video here is truly cracking! Wish they'd had a VS 744 swoop in from Crawley. [:o)]

Given the route of flight, I wonder - is LHR shut down for 10 minutes to accommodate it? [:?]

No idea, but I'm loving the image of His Grace spitting out a mouthful of Diet Coke as, on final approach to LHR, he gazes out the window of his VS metal and sees...a bloody Lancaster! [^]

No Red Arrows? Disgraceful.[:?][n] The Pride of The RAF and not there on the Big Day[V][:(]

Did anyone notice the Helcopter hovering above the flighline and partially hidden by the clouds? [?]

Actually I quite liked the fact that the Red Arrows were not there. They come out for all occassions and this was meant to be a celebration of the aircraft and aircrew who are flying in combat at the moment.

Great to see them all flying and with the tempo at the moment I was surprised to see so many.

I think the helicoper was there to get a different angle for filming and photos.
